Abstract: Large-scale cow farms can improve production efficiency,but they also produce intensivelylarge amounts of cow manurein some areas,and this manure is a serious environmental hazard if it is not properly handled. Anaerobic digestion (AD) (Biogas fermentation)can degrade pollutants,and produce biogas energy and organic fertilizer. It is regarded as effective and environmentally friendly means of animal manure disposes. However,due to the high content of refractory lignocellulose in cow manure as well as the operational issues and process instability, poor methane yield in anaerobic digestion of cow manure was observed. Therefore,further studies are required to make the anaerobic digestion techno-economically sustainable. This paper presents a detailed review in the influence of process parameters such as C/N ratio, temperature and solid concentration,on theperformance of the anaerobic digestion of cow manure.The strategies to boost anaerobic digestion performance of cow manure were summarized,including pre-treatments,co-digestion and introduction of additives. It is expected to provide help for solving the technical problems of anaerobic digestion of cow manure and technical popularization.
